hi @FMK,

Which Activity in uipath is Giving the Error ? It it the click ?

yes the click activity

I can see the click is placed inside the open browser.

  1. Remove the Click from inside the Open browser Do.
    2.Once the webpage page is Opened .
  2. Take a attach window outside the open browser and point to the opened Browser inside.
  3. Take a click activity inside Attach window and Try.

Is Uipath able to identify the elements inside IE Browser ?

I did as you suggested but still the same

@FMK ,

Okay , can we try with Hotkeys ?

Once the page is opened - We place send hotkeys and Try to hit the link using Hotkeys.

Say : Send Hotkey : Tab > Tab > down Key > Down Key > Enter

You have to work find the Hotkeys - That Brigs the control to the desired location and the hit ENTER.
